Re: Experimenting with Power Supply Filter Caps.

Welcome to the world of 'Hi-end' audio. I try to remove every cap that I can in my designs, but when I need an electrolytic cap, I now use Nichicon "MUSE" caps. They are oversized and expensive, but they also have non-magnetic leads and a superior construction. I have found that Panasonic HFQ caps are pretty good as well, but the leads are magnetic. You can get these through Digikey. Quality of components and layout is what separates hi-end from mid-fi. Panasonic TS caps are pretty good for large values.
